Reactions of 5-diazo-4-nitroimidazole with hydrochloric acid

Reaction of 5-diazo-4-nitroimidazole with concentrated hydrochloric acid leads to 4-chloro-5-diazoimidazole. The same product is formed together with a small quantity of 5-chloro-4-nitroimidazole with 1 N hydrochloric acid, but with 0.1 N hydrochloric acid only chloronitroimidazole was isolated. The results obtained are explained with the aid of quantum chemical calculations. 1999 KluwerAcademic/Plenum.

NITROIMIDAZOLES. PART V. CHLORONITROIMIDAZOLES FROM DINITROIMIDAZOLES. A REINVESTIGATION

5(4)-Chloro-4(5)-nitroimidazole and 2-chloro-4(5)-nitroimidazole or their N-methyl derivatives have been synthesized in at least two independent routes.In contrast to some former reports it has been established that from 2,4(or 5)-dinitroimidazoles only 2-chloro-4(or 5)-nitroimidazoles are obtained.In 4,5-dinitroimidazoles only a nitro group in the 5-position is replaced by a chlorine atom.Structures of the obtained compounds have been confirmed by analyses of physico-chemical data.
